Building EPIC:
The Story Behind the Software that Launched Exit Planning
In this episode of The Exit Planning Coach Podcast, host John F. Dini interviews Elizabeth Mower, former president of the Business Enterprise Institute (BEI) and the original architect of EPIC—the first exit planning software on the market. Elizabeth shares how her background in law and business led her to a pivotal role in shaping the early exit planning profession. She recounts the creation of EPIC’s planning logic, her unexpected 15-year tenure at BEI, and how that experience inspired her current work at entreVector. The conversation then shifts to the evolving needs of business owners and the workforce, as Elizabeth introduces her latest innovation: Vector Connect, a DIY program designed to bridge the generational gap in employee engagement through community impact initiatives.
